Hey!
Hey…
What have you done today?
Where have you been?
And tell me, who have you seen?
When I look in your eyes,
I know –
I know...
...you’ve been sat here,
talking to ghosts.

Reflection

When I was young,
I had such hunger -
searching for meaning,
reading and dreaming.

II shone so bright.
No time for spite.

Now I am old,
I am much colder ...

just silent screaming

I miss that child.

Sunbathing.

Jesus it’s hot.
I’m burned to a crisp.
Feels a bit demanding

I shall rest,
with your permission.

I shall write,
with no contrition.

A moment’s pause,
a chance to think…
that tick’ling touch -
a call to drink.

So I shall rest
at the edge of tracks,

a chance to truly
hit the max.
